The colors of the du paradis balls are soo pretty! I'm a sucker for purple

Oh, no I know! She's just one of the few bloggers that I've been following for a while and generally agree with her reviews. I mean... Sephora has a great return policy so I might just try them out. They could always go back!! But Aquarella (sp?) balls look super lovely too. I can't afford both at the moment.

Which of the two are your favorite?

Well, I just got Aquarella yesterday and put them on over balls that I was already wearing so I think it's fair to say
I'm still testing those. At this point I'd have to say thePerles Du Paradis are my favs between the two because
I've used them more and have more experience with them. BTW, the Perles Du Paradis are more readily available
than Aquarella, which I ordered from a seller in Singapore.

Great points! Thanks for your honest opinion.

Hopefully they'll stick around for the 20$ off 50$.

EDIT: oops.. Nevermind.

Seems they're OOS now on Sephora. Funny, I thought they were still available a few days ago.

You're right Lauren---they were available a few days ago.. I think they've restocked them twice, recently!

Hopefully they do one more time! I've signed up for the emails. I'll pounce on them as soon as I can.

Super. I signed up to keep watch for someone else & saw them before the e-maills went out---I'll give a shout to
you too when I see them.

Awesome

You might want to try the new holiday ones, Perles d’Etoiles: Guerlain Météorites Perles d’Etoiles

ItsJsquared · Nov 23, 2014

Thank you!!! Actually originally I was going to get that one, as I am a ballet and opera fan. But I was mainly getting the meteorites for a finishing powder, and the d'Etoiles was too golden bronzy. So ended up not getting it :/

I see---you may want to swatch them---they don't seem to bronzy---maybe because the red perles provide a degree of balance. They really are lovely. I use them all as finishing powders.

Thank you Naomi!!

I certainly hope so---They'll arrive when you least expect it!! I don't even recall when I ordered Aquarella--it was on my WL and I just went for it one day. They were delivered USPS and I had to sign for them.

Fingers crossed! I think once they do arrive I'll fall out from the excitement.

my balls just arrived.
Glad I stayed home today, I had to sign for them. .
They are pretty.
I almost couldn't figure out how to open the box. LMO
I remember this Guerlain smell!
I did have some powder at the bottom of my box... ah well...
I've only put them on my hand for now. Pretty.

OMG, I found this thread and I couldn't stop reading it!!! I have a Clair mini and I love it, and I got the dragon balls for the name and the gorgeous packaging. But I was disappointed with the dragon balls because they leave big silver glitter on my face at random spots. It looks like glitter eyeshadow fall out

. So when I started reading about your love for the white balls I new this would be my next purchase and I had to get my hands on them!!! Guess what you made me do lol? I can't wait for them to arrive. I blame it on Specktra
